Our Participants Talk About NITARP

  • Doyle

    For me, [this project] was a real partnership between scientists and educators. All questions and suggestion were taken seriously and with respect.

  • Laura

    I LOVED the chance to talk with some of the students that have been involved in the NITARP program. It was really good to hear of their insights and thoughts about the program, the process, and how it influenced their year and future plans.

  • Powers

    Our students, over the past few years since I participated in NITARP, have directly benefited from my being accepted into the program. You are a great asset and I appreciate all that you do!
